Guys,
Anyone know the best way to move my SuperRebel accross
the 'Pond'? It will be going from the UK to Calgary.
Fortunately I am 'engineless' so it's just the
fuselage (near complete), wings, tail surfaces, and
control surfaces. I was thinking about placing the
control surfaces in thick bubble wrap and then placing
them inside the fuselage.
What I am debating is: on the gear or off the gear? I
guess the way spring steel landing gear absorb loads
is by speading laterally, which they won't be able to
do in a container. However, if I place the fuselage on
it's belly I am afraid of it not having any cushion!?
Any ideas?
I have found pics on the internet where people have
appeared to place their aircraft in containers on
their gear and then fastned the gear to the floor with
steel brackets.

Wayne, you had a thread in 2001 where you shipped one
of your Rebels to Hawaii. Any learnings from that?
Thanks, -Jason
